Abstract
This paper experimentally examines the influence of abrasive water jet (AWJ) machined holes on the mechanical performance and damage evolution of flax/epoxy and carbon/flax/epoxy hybrid composites. The specimens were made of unidirectional flax fiber (F) and woven carbon fiber (C) in four configurations: unidirectional flax [0 F]16 (UD-F), unidirectional hybrid [0–90C2/0 F6]S (UD-CF), cross-ply [0–90C2/(0/90)F6]S (CF [0/90]), and angle-ply [0–90C2/(±45)F6]S (CF [±45]). The specimens were subjected to static and quasi-static load-unload tensile tests until failure and the damage evolution and plastic strain were monitored. Results revealed severe delamination induced by AWJ at the entry and the exit of the hole in UD-CF and CF [±45] samples, and no delamination was evident in the flax/epoxy plies. The specimens with holes showed pronounced stiffness degradation compared to hole-free specimens. A similar trend was observed in their permanent plastic strain. The cross-ply hybrids showed the lowest increase in damage. While all hybrids exhibited failure by carbon fiber breakage and delamination at the carbon–flax interface, only the laminates with unidirectional flax plies failed by fiber splitting around the hole.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
